  Speaker 1: This is an Unspoiled Network podcast spoil Me, covering one
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: piece episodes five eighty two through five eighty four, startling
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: the secret of the Island is finally revealed, Save the Children,
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: the straw Hats start to fight, and a sword play
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: showdown Brooke versus the mysterious Torso Samurai in these episodes.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: You know, it's funny because it says the secret of
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: the island is finally revealed. But I feel like there's
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: still a lot of secrets of this island that haven't
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: been revealed. There's just this is a particularly puzzling situation
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: that we are in. Welcome to spoil Me, Welcome to
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: the show everyone. I am Natasha. Thank you very much
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: to Florian for commissioning this episode. So yeah, you guys,
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: there's just so many secrets, so many weird things going
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: on on this island that I'm saying, like the secret
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: is finally revealed. It feels like it's overstating the amount
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: of information that we get because we still don't really
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: know what's going on here. You know, like there's there's
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: not actually a here's what happened to cause the island
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: to be this way. We know that like whatever incident
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: it was that happened a few years ago, it has
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: created this like half cold, half hot situation climate, I guess,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: but we don't yet know exactly what it was that
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: went wrong, how this all happened, like the story behind
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: that which for me, if you're saying something like the
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: secret of the island is finally revealed, that's what I'm
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: expecting to find out about. You know, there was like
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: and we know that it was like a failed experiment,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: but it's not really like when I say there's no explanation,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: what I mean is the fact that we have it
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: split into these two sections. I don't feel like there's
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: a good reason for it. A failed experiment that has like,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: you know, this sort of gas that is unhealthy to
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: be in, that's one thing, but for it to be
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: divided straight down the middle that is sort of this
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: does not feel adequate for me. However, it's fine. I
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: feel like the explanation is probably more like it really
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Probably in the end, maybe it does. And
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Saraphim is in the chat. Saraphim is leaving some comments.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: I'm going to read them. Well, one of the secrets
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: in this case was up with a half ire, half ice,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: half fire thing. The story be kind of the extreme climates,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: is that this is where OKG and Akino fought they're duel.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Wait a minute, Oh my god, you guys, how did
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: I miss that? I'm starting to get really concerned about
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: myself because I paid attention for these episodes, and maybe
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: I was just so distracted by some of the other
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: things that is happening I didn't even like, Oh but wait, no,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: I remember this now. I remember this now because like
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: when some Ofm's men reach the island and are on it,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: They're like, it feels really weird. It feels like we
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: are standing between the two of them fighting. That's right, Okay,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: I'm remembering now. Thank you, Sarah em So forgive me
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: anybody listening who's like infuriated at my opening of saying
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: this wasn't explained. Please please forgive my broken brain. I
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: don't have any better excuse than that, because I promise
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: I watched these I'm not like, just can you imagine
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: if I just came on here and straight up like pretended,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Oh man, that would be an interesting experiment. But anyway, okay, okay,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: so let's get into this whole like the one thing
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: that I am still super super curious about is this
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: bird woman. And I there's something that I had CONSI
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: in the watching of the last episodes that I didn't
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: bring up because I hadn't really wanted to think about
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: it as a possibility. If I'm being honest, you guys know,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: like I said last time, how uncomfortable medical experimentation makes me,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: And it's just like a particular what's the word I want, like,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: it's a particularly creepy and horrifying to me concept, and
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: the type of person that would be willing to put
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: other people through that kind of pain is really more
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: terrifying to me than any monster. But the fact that
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: we have a woman who is part bird and a
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: man who is a centaur has me kind of wonder
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: if we're doing some sort of Island of Doctor Moreau
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: thing going on here. And I haven't read The Island
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: of Doctor Moreau. I know, you know in broad strokes
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: what it is about. I not too long ago listen
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: to a podcast where they describe that like in pretty
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: good detail, like the plot points of it, and it
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: just sort of reinforced for me that that is not
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: a book I want to read because it touches so
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: heavily on the exact thing that I find genuinely really frightening,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: And this is sort of feeling like, maybe what is
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: happening here, I'm not entirely clear on how like the
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: children and all of their different sizes would tie into that.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Maybe the way that the woman in the centaur turned
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: out is just one type of experiment amongst a bunch
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: of other experiments. Maybe it's not just explicitly only about
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: making people male with animals somehow. But I just wanted
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: to mention, and that was something that I had thought
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: of in the last grouping of episodes and didn't remember
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: to bring up because I was a little bit distracted
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: by the fact that Lufy is like somehow kind of
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: a centaur, but like not really all right, So when
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: we open this episode, all of our friends we kind
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: of recount what's going on with this samurai whose head
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: has been reassembled incorrectly. I do want to take a
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: moment and kind of give some credit for the fact
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: that having his body cut into a bunch of pieces.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Even Nami says, this is so weird, it's like buggy,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: But also the fact that they have decided to do
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: this not just is it like Buggy, but we have
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: taken it up a notch where he gets divided down
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: into even smaller parts, where his head is cut into
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: several pieces. I can't lie, guys, I do think that's
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: very funny, the idea of just like, no, I'm gonna
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: do something sort of similar, but I'm gonna dial it
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: up a notch or two. I like it, and this
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: guy we have a whole other moment. This was really
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: it's so weird, y'all, And honestly it's very true to life.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: But it doesn't seem like any male character can interact
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: with Nami without either reprimanding her for being immodest or
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: lusting after her. It's just not possible. No matter what,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: that's gonna be a problem for somebody in some way.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: And that's really genuinely when you're, like I was gonna say,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: when you're young and beautiful, but honestly, it can progress
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: even past being young and beautiful. It really is the
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: way the world can be. You are punished for being
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: unattractive or attractive. You know, it doesn't matter because women
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: can't win. That's really just all it comes down to.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: So the fact that we have yet another character here
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: who and I do recognize. He condemns her for her immodesty,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: but then he also when she says you like it though,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: don't you, admits yes, I do very much. Are you really? Really? Really?
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: And I like the very fact that Sonji has reacted
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: this way himself every single time and gets so angry
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: at this dude. That is also another like telling on
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: themselves sort of thing that a lot of guys do.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: It's very it's just wild. It's not me. Is either
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: here to be like slut celebrated or slut shamed, but
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: either way, so yeah, this He eventually comes around to
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: it and is like, oh, well, I guess that's what
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: U is appropriate in your land. So I approve, and
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: I appreciated that she just follows that up with like,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: I don't fucking care if you approve. That is not
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: what this is about at all. And this is when
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Soanjy like kicks him into the wall and his head
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: is just embedded in it. But he's like trying to
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: pretend that he can just stay there and if they
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: take off without him, it won't bother him because they're
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: pirates and he can't stand pirates. So he's just not
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: willing to team up with them, and understandably, they all
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: are just like, no, yeah, we're not just leaving you here,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: like this isn't a great situation for you either, and
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: he reveals finally that he is here to save his
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: son's life, but we don't really get any further details
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: about that here. So eventually Frankie is able to bust
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: this door down and they escape this room, and they
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: are not sure where to head. They're just going down
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: the hallway trying to avoid the weird guys in these
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: suits that you know, the what do you call them,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: like sort of has matt suits, and they wind up
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: coming upon a room that is filled with toys, and
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: it becomes clear very quickly that this is some sort
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: of nursery. It's a playroom. And I really liked the
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: way that this reveal is done because the kids are
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: out of like frame of our friends. They're not together,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: so there's no scale at first, and you just see
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: all of these children and you're just sort of like,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: that's weird. There's a bunch of kids here, okay, And
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: then the camera pulls back and you get to see
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: how huge they are in comparison to the straw hats
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: and you're like, wait what, I was so taken aback?
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: And it turns out too not even all of them
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: are the size. Some of them are humongous, some of
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: them are perfectly normal sized, and it doesn't really seem
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: like there's rhyme or reason that we can understand as
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: to how, you know, why some of them are certain
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: size and others aren't. And later on, one of the
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: kids is like, it's okay, we're not sick anymore. We're
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: totally better, I promise, And when our friends seem to
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: be leaving these children behind, the kids start yelling out
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: you know about this, and then the guards are saying,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: but you guys are sick, and you know it's for
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: your own good that you're going to stay here, and
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: we promise nothing is going to happen to you, and
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: the whole like the tone of it very much feels
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: like these kids have been full online to But there's
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: also a part of me that is like, well, maybe
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: they weren't sick until they got here. Could also be
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: a possibility maybe they are kind of sick in this
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: way that's like, you know, been actually caused by whatever
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: is being done to them, because who knows what the
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: fuck is happening with some of them being huge and
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: others not. This is the kind of thing that you
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: could be just right off as like, oh, you know,
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: some sort of radiation for whatever. The uh the chemical
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: problem was that some of the kids inhaled it and
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: they got huge for some reason, you know what I mean?
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: Like it could be something just that simple, And if
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: it is that simple, it kind of would explain why
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: you are feeling like protective of them and being like, no,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: promise you really are sick though, you know so, I
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: don't know. I'm not to say that I actually trust
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: these dudes. I really want to make that part clear.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: At least, I don't believe that whatever they're being told
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: these guys are being honest about. I'm just saying that
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: there could be a sort of truth that they're telling
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: like half of in order to cover up their own asses.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: And I like the fact that there are children as
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: part of this experiment. The fact that this samurai is
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: here to save his son, and I fully thought his
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: kid was going to be in this room and then
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: he isn't. That was very concerning to me because it
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: feels like if you've got enough children in a facility
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: like this that there's like so many that they're not
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: even contained in one place. How many experiments are you running? Like?
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: What else are you up to? You know what I'm saying?
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: That made me feel like kind of sick. The idea
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: of like possibly more than one room and some of
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: these kids being taken to a separate place, And why
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: would that be. It's possible that his child is simply
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: not even here, that he came to this building and
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: to these people because they were the most obvious explanation
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: where his son is, but that he's wrong and that
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: they're not located in this building. But I feel like,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: if you've got a bunch of children penned up in
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: a room being fed liies about why they're here, I
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: don't really blame you for a souoning your kid is
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: also in this place. I feel like that just that
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: just follows, you know, So anyway, I uh, this, the
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: the energy of this thing with the children is so
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: truly said. I was taken kind of by surprise because
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: you guys know how inconsistent it can be with this
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: show in terms of my emotional reaction when clearly the
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: show is trying to get me to feel something, And
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: there are times where I have felt almost obstinately, like
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: almost like you're trying too hard, either with the the
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: music being a little bit over the top, or just
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: the overall situation feeling almost too ridiculous in how terrible
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: things are. That it's like, you know, an oscar bait
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: type of movie where I'm like, yeah, I get what
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: we're doing here, but also it's very difficult for me
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: to take this fully seriously. And I feel like this
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: struck a really good balance of being just horrifying enough,
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: especially because we don't fully know what's happening here. That
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: that combined with the very innocent quality of these children
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: and how slow they are to ask to be rescued.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: These kids respond when our friends show up like real children.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: They're excited to see Frankie, who is a cyborg. They're
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: interested in Soanjy's weird eyebrows. Like there's a lot about
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: this interaction that feels just like they've run into some
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: regular children, and so I think setting them up as
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: kids in that way, and then we transition to them
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: being like, wait, you're leaving without us, Please don't leave
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: us here. It was just I was given enough time
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: to see them as real people and not just a
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: prop that needs rescuing for the sake of the plot,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: and I found myself like really upset by it, and
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: the kids just eventually being like, well, okay, if you
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: have to go, but you promise you're going to come back,
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: right and the fact that they are in such a
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: bad place that they are willing to make that kind
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: of concession, you know, that they're just like, yeah, we
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: get it, You're not going to be able to take
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: us away right now, but we are so desperate that
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: if we have to just wait for you, that's what
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: we'll do. I really this was like heartbreaking and just
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: really kind of caught me off guard. So and I
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: really did think as well that the straw Hats were
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: going to take off and then find a way to
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: rescue the kids and come back. So when the Straw
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: Hats turn around like on the spot and begin to
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: fight for the kids, I was surprised by that as well,
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: because I expected that we were going to do a
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: sort of like go out, regroup with the rest of
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: the crew and find out what's happening on this island
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: in general, and then all of us as a complete
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: crew come back and rescue these children. So I was
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: glad that it's, you know, managed right away, and that
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: my being heartbroken over these kids does not last very long.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: So we've got Brooke, and he reminder is like in
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: this whole other weird sort of limbo because all of
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: his friends that are actually alive got captured and they're
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: in the building, and then Robin us up, Lufi and
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: Zorro are still on the fire side of the island
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: and they are like, they're not turning around to get Brooke.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: He is in contact with them via a transponder snail,
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: but he's not like there's a weird separateness with him,
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: and I found it sort of odd because what we
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: wind up doing with him pretty much is he fights
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: the Torso part of the Samurai, and I'm just sort of,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: here's the thing, guys, and this is just the thing
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: that I think the show struggles with a lot anyway.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: But he's fighting the Torso guy, and he seems genuinely
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: like a bit upset and overwhelmed at the situation, which sure,
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: but he's getting scared of being cut and all I
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: could think was, I've seen your head get cut off man,
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: and it did nothing. You just picked it up and
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: you put it back on and there and there it was,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: and you were fine. So as he's beginning to really
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: panic when dealing with the Swordsman, I was like, but
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: why I don't feel any tension here at all personally,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: because I know what you can tolerate. You're gonna be fine,
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And it was just sort
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: of a weird choice I felt like to have Brook
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: of all people, like plot wise, it makes sense why
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: he's still on the ship because of being the only
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: one who isn't alive and therefore immune to this gas,
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: and also them thinking that he or he isn't immune
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: to the gas, but they just thought he was dead
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: because he is a literal skeleton. But I was confused
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: about the fact that he seems so worried about being
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: cut by the Swordsman when I was feeling pretty confident.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: You don't have any reason to be worried, sir. We
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: know you're going to be just fine. That's just how
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: you roll. But anyway, that's like most of what he
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: deals with in his being apart from the rest of
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: the crew, is fighting with this weirdo tour, so so yeah,
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: and when Brooke is talking to Oose up via the
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: transponder Snail, he also mentions that they're in an area
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: now where it's all like ice and snow. So this
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: is when they're just beginning to understand that there are
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: two halves to this and they're on the whole other side.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: Luffy is still convinced that he's going to be able
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: to do this snow code thing. I really kind of
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: hope that pans out for him. I hope this whole
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: arc ends with Lufy getting to have a snow cone blessing.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: But anyway, so what I was saying was, thankfully because
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: Brooke remains and wasn't captured, at the very least, he
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: is able to explain to our friends where everybody went
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: because there's a witness who can give specific details about
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: it that I really can only imagine if they had
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: all gotten captured and then Lufy and Robin and everybody
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: came back to the ship and just found them fucking gone, Like,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: what would you think. I don't know what I would think.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: I'd probably, I guess assume that they're out on the
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: island exploring somewhere, because there's no real evidence pointing to
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: the fact that these people, like the gas disperses after
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: they leave, and there's no blood there, you know, there's
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: nothing that really clearly marks a fight. And the guys
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: have remained almost invisible as far as I can tell,
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: so that there's no hint there's anybody else on this
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: island at all, and I think it would just be
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: really difficult for them to know what to do. And
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: I'm glad at least that somebody was there to see
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: what happened. It explains about the suits that they were
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: wearing and everything else. So then we have Loofy, who
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: is with this sweet, wonderful little uh what do you
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: call him? Centaur? I call him sweet and wonderful because
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: he just reminds me of Torman Giant Spain all being o.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: If I'm being honest, like there's just a real like
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: I can beat the shit out of people and am
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: very badass, but mostly I'm not super interested in doing
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: that and just kind of want to be buds. That's
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: the vibe that I get off of this Kui and
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: so his whole energy. I was very disappointed that it
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: basically gets like shut down when he is told, hey,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: you know that that dude isn't your friend, right, that's
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: some enemy that you need to deal with, and then
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: his whole attitude changes. Lufy is also disappointed because he's
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: just been having a great time, But like for me,
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: I was just like, oh, but I liked seeing this
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: over the top, fun dude who is just willing to
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: All he does is like race with Loofy. He just
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: wants to go and see whose legs are the strongest
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: and the best, which, by the way, he beats Loofy
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: in a race. And I was kind of pleasantly surprised
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: because I just sort of assume that anytime Lufy gets
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: into a physical challenge of any kind with anybody, I
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: assume Lufy is going to be the one that comes
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: out on top every time. And so the fact that
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: he doesn't, I was sort of like, oh, nice, Okay,
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: so we've got a whole other, you know, a little
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: bit of a moment here with him being beaten by
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: this dude who's got genuine horse legs, which only makes sense,
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: but so yeah, and they're about to race again, and
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: he gets the transponder snail call about how Lufy isn't
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: a friend and put Loofy unaware of this, is just
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: looking over his shoulder at this guy like are you coming, Like,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: I'm ready, let's go do this, Let's do our second race.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: And this dude looks genuinely so disappointed, you know. So Brooke,
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: he has gotten to this building and he because he's
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: still on the ship, but he can see it. And
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: Robin is like, well, do you see anything? Do you
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: see a building? And he's like, yes, indeed I do.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: And it's outside of there that he comes across the
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: Torso it's so weird too. He says, it's not a restaurant,
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: I know that much. And I was like, who asked
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: you if it was a restaurant? Why? Why did you
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: even bring that up? Weird little moment. So the I'm
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: trying to see, like because everybody is split up the
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: way they often are, knowing where to jump next is
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: a little bit because sometimes if I get ahead of
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: myself in one section, then I have to double back
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: on another section. So I'm trying to make sure that
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: I don't miss anything here. Oh my god, I forgot that.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: There's like this giraffe guy as well, and loofy, it's
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: just sort of delighted by him. I mean, why wouldn't
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: you be the giraffe, Like that's kind of dope, but
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: of course everybody else is. They're trying to kill us Loopy.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: This isn't cool, This isn't awesome, And us Up takes
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: the transponder snail off this guy and he says it
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: says cc on it. They're not just free roaming magical creatures.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: They're part of some organization and we don't know what
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: this is. But Usup says, if we tried to get
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: out of here, the sunny is gone. It's all the
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: way on the frozen side, so it's not like we
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: can just turn around and head back. And our friends
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: got taken, so we can't just bail from them either,
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: So what are we going to do? And Robin is
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: theorizing like, well, if our friends are passed out, they're
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: not going to be able to defend themselves, so they're
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: in a pretty bad situation. Like what are we? We
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: kind of fucked up here, and Lufy says, it's fine.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: I even got to meet doctor Leggingston, which is apparently
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: what he's calling his back legs. I thought that that
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: was what he was calling the centaur at first, but no,
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: it's what he's calling his second pair of legs, and
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: I hesitate to even call them that because they're not his.
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: But it's fine, and Lufy's like, you guys know, I
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: already wanted to go to the other side. So nothing
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: has changed. We just got to figure out the way
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: that we're going to get across this water. And Zoro
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: his theory about getting over the water is well, if
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: there's fire and there's an ice in the water, then
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: probably the water is the exact right temperature and we
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: should just swim, which there is a sort of weird
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: sense in that, but as we see later, it is
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: not that simple because that water is quite literally boiling
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: and would have turned them into a soup. Meanwhile, inside
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: the building, this weird flame clown is out here investigating
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: how our friends got out of a door that is
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: supposed to be unbreakable, and he can see that this
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: was a laser that the marks here, like, that's clearly
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: what's going on here. Some dude comes in and informs
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: them all that there is a marine ship that is
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: coming closer, and the Caesar clowns says, well, don't kill them.
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: We don't want to start drawing attention but shoot some
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: poison gas out there and they'll really start to get
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: the idea we need to get rid of them as
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: quickly as possible, which I thought was sort of interesting,
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: the idea that, like, he whatever it is that he
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: is up to in here, he doesn't want them knowing about.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: I guess they're so inside like because remember the response
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: that Smoker and Tashiki had at hearing that perhaps our
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: friends were on what is this place called punk Hazard, right,
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: Their response was essentially, wow, that's weird, because as far
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: as I knew, that whole island was closed off and
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: nobody was even allowed on it. So how is that possible?
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: And my assumption is that Caesar Clown has some I
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: really hate that name. Every time I say it, I
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: feel like I'm I'm being ridiculous, like that this is
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: completely wrong. You know, I don't know what the deal
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: is with this name, guys, but I just don't I
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: don't like it. But anyway, he seems to be laying
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: low enough that nobody knows that he is still alive,
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: or that he was alive at all, because like the
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: thing with the chemicals that went wrong was something to
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: do with the Oh my god, you guys, I'm trying
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: to remember his name, the one that Frankie found his laboratory.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: Wasn't his name Vega Punk? Is this place called Punk
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: Hazard after him? Is that where the name came from?
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: But like, I feel like they mentioned his name in
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: conjunction with the chemical thing. And I had said when
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: we first are here and c Caesar Clown for the
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: first time, that my initial assumption was that this was
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: Vega Punk and that something had happened to him with
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: an experiment, and now he is this like weird creature,
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: And the way that this is talked about, I'm kind
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: of starting to be like, maybe that's exactly it is
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: Caesar Clown Vega Punk and just has like this weird
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: new flame body now and goes by a different name
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: for whatever reason, and is supposed to be dead but
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: survived somehow. I don't know how this could be It's
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: and I don't really feel like I've seen another character
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: on this show changed themselves physically and then completely go
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: by a new name exactly. We've had them get given
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: different names by organizations, but I don't feel like we
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: have ever seen them choose a whole new identity. And
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: so that's The thing that I keep sort of falling
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: up against is like, is does that make sense for
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: the way that we have seen things works in this universe?
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but yeah, so the I just want
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: to call him Flame Guy because that honestly feels less
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: ridiculous than the actual name that he goes by. But anyway,
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: they catch on pretty quickly about the gas, and Tashigi
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: is like, all right, guys, everybody get gas masks, and
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: you know they're not taking this as a threat at all.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: They do because the theory was put some poison gas
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: out there. They'll get the idea and they'll turn away.
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: But that doesn't work at all instantly. It's just put
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: gas masks on, deal with it. And Smoker, for his part,
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: who this dude keeps surprising me by being smart because
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: he's such a like brute, you know, his whole look.
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: He's just so fucking menacing and muscular like a meathead.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: I keep thinking that he's also a dingling and he
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: just isn't really. So his takeaway here is the chemical
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: spill that was supposed to have caused all this poison
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: gas was a long time ago. The amount of gas
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: that is still here does not make any sense. So
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: somebody is doing this. This is not what's left over this,
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: you know, this whole thing is very suspect, And I
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: really just like the fact that he keeps being like,
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: the toxic substances were cleared out like two years ago,
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: so yeah, and this is this is when he's like, oh, yeah,
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: the island is the mark of their battle. That's why
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: I got so distracted it because I was like, it
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: was Smoker telling the story, and I was fascinated at
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: the fact that he was able to see past the
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: whole poison gas thing. So I just like completely somehow
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: was zeroed in on that. I just think Smoker is
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: probably I'm interested in seeing who they cast. I feel
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: like I heard that they cast somebody, but I haven't
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: seen them in costume yet. But I feel like Smoker
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: is probably one of the hotter characters on this show.
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: So he also just distracts me because of his pretty face.
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: But yeah, so that is why this Island is broken
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: up the way that it is, right right right. Thank
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: you Sarah FM for your patients and all my listeners
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: as well. So I love the fact, by the way,
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: guys just mentioning this because we get it as a
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: subtitle whenever we go into the room with all the children.
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: But the fact that it's called the Biscuit Room, it's adorable.
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: I just like, look, the word biscuit is just very,
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: very cute. Anyway. I have a friend who has a
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: little Corrigie dog named Biscuit, and I am sorry, but
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: there is just nothing cuter in the entire world. That
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: is the cutest name that has ever been so anyway,
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: I just wanted to mention that because I didn't say
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: a last time. There's also something extra creepy about the
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: thing with the kids because the place is so built
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: to be such a pleasant, fun space for children. If
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: this were like a stark white room and a bunch
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: of kids were being kept in here with like, you know,
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: all of them in jumpsuits, with this like fluorescent lighting
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: on them and steel furniture, it would have felt a
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: little too heavy handed. But the kids are being allowed
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: to just play like children, and the room is set
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: up to be brightly colored and fun, like you would
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: do for an actual preschool or something, and it makes
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: it much much more unnerving in my opinion. So I
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: really the whole thing with the kids, I don't know man,
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: there is just something so effective about this entire storyline.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: All right, so I'm jumping ahead a little bit. Okay,
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: here's the part where they're figuring out how to get
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: across the water and Oosap finally comes through and he says,
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: let me see what I can do special attack Green Star,
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: and he grows fangrass, which looks like oars and then
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: he does body banana, which I love it. It pops
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: out like it's rolled up like you would with something
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: that's inflatable, and then like self inflates and drops in
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: the water, and I could not you, guys, I just
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: think this is so funny because it's not like he's like,
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I have a tool that will
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: work here, let me try this thing. Do you think
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: this would be appropriate? We're debating how to get across
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: the water and you literally have something in your arsenal
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: that straight up turns into a boat. My guy, you
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: didn't think this was probably like the part you should
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: be playing like two seconds ago. Oosup is just like,
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: what are we gonna do? I don't know how we're
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: possibly going to get out of this, and then he's
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: just like, oh, oh, here's my boady banana, and I'm
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: just like, dude, well, why you know, like that feels
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: sort of like this is the exact situation that you
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: would want to use something like this. Why did it
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: take you this long to draw this conclusion? Anyway? And
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: the fangrass like it is really really cool. Robin is like,
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: you've got a lot of seeds. They are really awesome actually,
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: and Oosub says, yeah, there were a lot of weird plants,
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: and the deeper I went into weird dangerous areas, the
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: more valuable and useful the plants I stumbled across happened
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: to be. So he was like, let's head that away.
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: And of course has to sit on this like kind
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: of cross beam on the stern of the boat because
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: he can't just sit with everybody down in the regular
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: part of the boat. It's just not his style. We
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: find out too, that the change in temperature from one
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: side of the island to the other has caused this
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: like air pressure change that creates a really intense wind,
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: and this is slowing them down a little bit, so
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: they are still a little bit closer to the shore
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: than they probably should be because of the wind. When
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: the centaur comes down and is just like, you can't
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: get away from me, and just chucks a fucking like
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: boulder at them, almost capsizes them. And then when he
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: can't reach them, of course, Lufy is still like trying
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: to invite him to the crew, but he blows on
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: a horn and he says like he calls for Boss,
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: which is the name that we heard the guy on
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: the transponder snail at the very start of this whole thing,
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: saying like it's so cold, we need Boss. And when
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: he says this, we see a pair of eyes open,
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: but it's just like a completely black screen and then
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: two bright red eye shapes that open, and we don't
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: actually get to see what Boss looks like in any detail.
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: He is just this like distressing silhouette surrounded by a
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: lot of smaller dudes who also have red eyes in
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: this in the like buried in their silhouettes, and evidently
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: they are looking for the samurai, and this dude sees
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: Zorro and assumes understandably that Zorro is that samurai. Later on,
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: Usub's like, he's not a samurai, he's just a swordsman,
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: and I was like, I'm not sure that's this compelling
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: an argument as you think it is. When you say that,
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: I would sort of be like, yeah, that's Isn't that
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: just what that is? But the dude is like, he
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: seems to be in a position of power over the
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: creatures on this island. So I'm interested in what this
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: dude like. Is there a way that we can team
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: up here somehow even though he's against the Samurai and
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: we sort of are on the Samurai's side. Maybe we
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: can work something out and have like a little discussion
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: and get it all straightened out. And you know, I
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: don't know. So anyway, I'm gonna jump back really quick
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: before the end of this episode because this is when
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: the straw Hats go into the nursery and start to
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: fight the dudes who are in the hazmat suits. We
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: get some of Chopper in his like really compact stout
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: sort of form the newer one. I can't remember if
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: there's a name for it, but he is doing like
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: a bunch of ninja shit, which is badass. And Frankie
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: comes in and is doing a bunch of stuff, and
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: Sanji kicks a guy. It's so funny to you sometimes
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: the way that Sanji's kicks hit. It's like somebody will
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: just be standing there and then you'll just see them
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: careening into the ceiling. But his leg is drawn so
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: weirdly that you don't connect that it's his leg right away.
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: So there have been a few times where he's kicked
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: somebody and I'm like, wait, what just happened to them?
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: And then you'll see the camera pans over and you'll
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: see that, like that shape is his leg connecting to
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: his body, and you'll be like, oh, okay. I love
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: the fact that Sanji is like the fact that Nami
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: is only ever nice to children is like, it only
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: makes her sexier. This is one of the only times
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: that I like the fact that he just the idea
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: that he's into a woman who's kind of like rude
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: and mean to everybody else. This is something about his
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: personality that I kind of understand. I get it. So anyway,
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: he's just smoking, observing this whole thing, and he's like,
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: all right, chop er, take Nami and get out of here.
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: Says all right, listen up, ankle biters. Follow the beautiful
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: lady and the kung fu raccoon. So the kids, this
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: is the The girl's name is Mocha, I think the
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: oldest girl, uh son. She has to say, though I'm
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: not doing any of this for you, I hate you
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: for putting Nami in danger and because she likes you
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: so much. What a weird comment. This is something that
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: I have heard is a real thing. Men who you
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: know their partner has a child, and the dude is
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: jealous of the child, the infant because it's getting so
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: much attention. So like, this is clearly a real thing.
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: But y'all, that is some that is weird to me.
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: It just it just is. Uh So, Anyway, he is
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: taking care of them, taking up the rear as the
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: rest of the group of kids runs out, and all
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: I could think was, like, they better hope that whatever
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: door they leave through that they're on the warmer side
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: of the island, because these kids are all in like
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: shorts and undershirts. They have practically nothing on, and if
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: they are out in the cold, it is going to
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: go badly for them pretty quickly. Frankie of course, also
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: stays with Sanjy to fight these dudes. So we have
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: them like squaring up, and you guys, there's the last
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: thing we have like in this scene is Brooke playing
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: in the snow and singing a little song to himself,
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: and I just really I know that this is not
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: the content that y'all are necessarily here for, but I
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: really want to read you so I y'all know, I
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: love Brooke. I love the voice actor and the way
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: that he is playing him. I just find him to
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: be a standout always in every episode. His delivery of
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: every line is genuinely so funny, and it's just short
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: lines that aren't really like they shouldn't be as funny
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: as they are. So I decided to just look up
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: who this voice actor is, and his name is Ian Sinclair,
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: and he has done the voice for a ton of anime,
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: like so much, and I was just reading through the
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: titles of some of them and I could not stop laving.
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: I'm sure that a lot of this is like a
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: translation thing, but it results in some of the most
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: hilarious titles. So I'm just gonna read you some of
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: these because I just thought some and it's a small
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: number that I'm reading here because there's so many. But
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: also special mentioned to Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood because I
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: did cover that and he was a voice in that.
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: He was Liam genuinely don't remember who that even is
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: at this point, but I just wanted to mention that here.
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: So we've got Spice and Wolf two Attack on Titan,
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: which I know is a famous one, so I'm gonna
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: mention that as well. Nile Doc is apparently who he
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: plays in that Space Dandy Amazing Assassination, Classroom death Parade.
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's just metal. Soul Eater not exclamation point.
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know why I have an exclamation point after Unspoiled,
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: so I'm not going to judge, but soul Eater not
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: for how does that work out? Unbreakable machine doll. Let's
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: see where there was a really wild one that was
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: coming up. Oh I love cheer boys and that one
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: has two exclamation points and you thought there is never
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: a girl online? Question mark all out to exclamation points?
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: Kay Joe seven exclamation points? Uh he is on Dragon
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: Ball super plays. Wis gonna mention that anything that I
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: sort of recognize the name, I'm going to say it.
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: Let's see where's the one. Oh yeah, convenience store boyfriends
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: love it. Genocidal organ For me, that is a real
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: sort of feeling like we've got just two words that
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: were putting together on a mad lib, but I don't
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: know it sort of works, Black Clover Pop Team Epic,
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: the Let's See, Where's the Sorry guys. That one piece
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: keeps popping up because there's movies as well, so he
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: apparently was voicing either Brook or some other character in
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: the movies I have. I'm trying to not look past
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: just the titles because I'm afraid of I'm going to
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: get a spoiler. Wonder Egg Priority, which there is more
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: than one of those on this list, apparently a series
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: World Trigger, The Prince of Tennis, which is I don't know,
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: that sort of got a ring to it. The Slime
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: Diaries colon that time I got reincarnated as a slime,
• 50:50
  Speaker 1: which is just Chef's Kiss amazing. And let's see. The
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: last one that I liked was just called laid Back Camp,
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: and that was recent. That's a twenty twenty four project.
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: So anyway, guys, I just really I was looking through
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: this and I thought some of these names were so great,
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: and I just had to share them with you because
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: I was giggling to myself. Genocidal organ is really one
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: that like wedged itself into my head, because that is
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: there's so many questions that that brings up. So anyway,
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: sorry for this little sidetrack, but I don't apologize really
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: because it was worth it. But this is when somebody
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: begins to attack Brook. He's in the midst of making
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: a bunch of snowmen with all of these weird little
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: metal parts and uh using them to make the faces,
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: and it's actually kind of adorable. I was sort of
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: hoping that some weird magic would bring them all to life,
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: but we're not in Frosty the Snowman unfortunately. So the
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: next episode it deals a lot with his fight with
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: the Torso, and then we have got the marine guys
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: who are trying to get all like across the very
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: treacherous land here. It's interesting too because since our friends,
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: like the ship is on the snowy side, but they
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: didn't intend to go over there, we didn't really see
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: all of these glaciers and everything that the Marines are
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: dealing with. We saw all of this lava, and you
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: know the way that they coped with that with Nami's
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: cloud bridge and they were able to just basically skip
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: over it all, and so getting to see the defenses
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: of all of the ice, it was just kind of
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: fun to see how different it is coming from this direction. Also, guys,
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: I have to mention the fact that Smoker is over
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: here with a gas mask on, with a pair of
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: cigars jammed into one of the holes in the gas mask.
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: Just truly beautiful stuff. Love this so much. And all
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: of his men are just like, how did you know
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: that there was a river behind all of this? That's
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: so impressive, and he just chucks them all and says,
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: looking at the sea current, you morons, you morons. You
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: gotta start paying attention, and Smoker says, the fact that
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: there was a hidden river is not what's important in
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: this situation. What really matters is whether the ice blocking
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: it formed naturally or was man made. And basically they're like, okay,
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: so maybe somebody was hiding the river on purpose. And
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, guys, come on, obviously, like there's a
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: gas mask, like there's gas that shouldn't be here, there's
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: something blocking the entrance to the river. Of course, but
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: these dudes are not smart. They keep admiring to Shigi
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: but also just being incredibly disrespectful to her as well.
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: So I just had to mention that because she is
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: so annoying or they are so annoying. She is actually
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: kind of annoying too, but it's not her fault. It's
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: the voice actress. I don't know if she does voices
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: for other characters, but I don't feel like she's very
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: strong in this role. And t Shigi is supposed to
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: be kind of a hard ass, but she doesn't feel
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: very convincing. Like Nami's a voice actor, you know, she
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: does a great job whenever she's being a hard ass,
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: and you buy it. But this girl, it just sounds
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: like somebody who is pretty actually like mild mannered, sort
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: of pretending. And at first that's what I thought t
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: Shiki's deal was. But the more I get to know her,
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: the more I'm like, no, I think she's genuinely a
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: hard ass. I don't think this is her trying to pretend.
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: I think she is this and it's just the actor
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: that's sort of giving me this impression of her. So anyway,
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: as they are they're coming in on this river, we
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: go over to our friends who are approaching Boss, and
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: we get to see what this dude looks like, and
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: he is essentially like a cartoon pirate, but just you know,
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: extremely tall, the way that always the bosses seem to
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: be unless they're loofy and or no, that's brown Beard.
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: He's not boss, right, this is this is a different
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: guy is boss and brown Beard the same guy. I
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: don't remember if that's actually said, but it's so funny
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: how many people are named like color Beard. But he
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: is certain that who they've got with them is the
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: samurai and is saying that, like we are, you are
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: clearly spoiling for a fight. It's nothing but a pathetic ploy.
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: And he's saying to all of his men, you can't
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: let them get any farther. And there's a centaur woman
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: here who has, like, of course, very very similar look
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: to Robin, because everybody, like most of the women just
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: seem to look identical to each other in this series.
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: And she's wearing this like kind of adorable like zip
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: up parka that goes over her whole like front and rear,
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: and I was just like, wow, I wonder where she
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: got that from. That's actually like a really cute look.
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: Jumping back to the straw hats that are inside with
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: the children, and Chopper is really out here like I
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: am gonna do whatever it takes, and his eyes are
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: getting all like flamey, and he is determined as he
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: does a summersault over everybody's heads and just knocks out
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: each of the dudes that is ahead of them because
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: they're about to I think either like gas them or
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: use like water hoses. I'm not sure. I think it
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: was just gonna be a gasp a gas that they
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: use like a sleeping gas. But just the fact that
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: we get to see Chopper being a badass, I really
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: enjoy it. Y'all know, every time that he gets to
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: show off a little bit like this, it's gratifying because
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: it's rare, and when he's with Nami, he's allowed to
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: be the fighter out of the two of them. So anyway,
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: one of these kids has a head that looks so
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: much like an onion, so very much like an onion.
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: It's reminding me of like one of the kids on
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: Usop's Island that was admiring him way back, because I
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: feel like he was actually named Onion in Japanese. So
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: we've got more of the fight inside with with Sanji,
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: Frankie and the head of the Samurai, but I'm not
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: going to get too much into that because it's which
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: is sort of weird he's talking about the battle that
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: he is in and how he's never faced a challenge
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: like that, and Frankie's like, what are you talking about?
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: And he has to be like, oh, sorry, not here
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: my torso. It's in a different battle. And I was
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: just like, this is this is some wild stuff that
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: you have to keep track of. Guy. We have tashi
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: Ye cutting this giant like ice island that's been chucked
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: at them. It's a glacier, I guess, but it's like
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: mid air and she is saving her entire crew, going
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: back to Brooke and his you know, fight with the torso,
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: and then we go to Caesar Clown, who is extremely
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: agitated that the marine ship has managed to get as
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: far inward as it has. You know, the whole point
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: is that they're not supposed to get to like the
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: inside of the island, and he's asking why do they
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: even want to come ashore so badly? Like why do
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: they what brought them here in the first place, and
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: asks who their commanding officer is, and when somebody tells
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: him it's Smoker, he's like, huh, okay, well, I guess
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: that's not a huge surprise, but I don't know what
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: that means if it's just that Smoker tends to be
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: somebody who's really tenacious, sees through bullshit, I don't know.
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: And he tells them, like our ships that are out front,
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: you have got to hide and don't let anybody see
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: you because they can't know that there are people here
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: at all. It's supposed to be completely deserted. So then
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: you hear a voice say you want me to handle it?
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: And it was the outline of Trafalgar Law. He is
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: very recognizable, and I was so confused. I didn't know
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: what to make it. I still don't know what to
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: make of this. So the marine ship eventually, you know,
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: it hits shore and they get off and they're approaching
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: this door, and all of the men it's so weird.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: They're trying to like bash it in, pounding on the door,
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: and eventually Trafalgar just opens it and is like, hey,
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: so what are you guys doing here? And all of
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 1: the men react as if this is the most terrifying
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: thing they have ever seen that Trafalgar Law is and
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: he is like several tiers above Smoker if I'm not mistaken,
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: So I guess it makes sense, but I also couldn't
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: help but laugh at Like Trafalgar Law is supposedly working
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: with you guys most of the time, so and you know,
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: the like the fact that they're on the same team
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: allegedly apparently doesn't count for much because they say something
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: about how well, you know what he did right to
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: become one of the seven warlords, And we get a
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: flashback of this delivery of bags and all of the
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: bags are moving. He delivered the hearts of a hundred
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 1: pirates to navy headquarters. You guys, the hearts are like
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: moving inside the bags. I think it's suggesting their hearts
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 1: are still beating, which I don't know how that is
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: supposed to work. And there's no blood on the sex either,
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: which I did think was kind of surprising because the
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: show is not shy about blood, like mostly. But yeah,
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: Smoker is just like, okay, well, what the fuck are
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: you doing here? Though, Like there isn't supposed to be
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: anyone on this island, and Trafalgar Lodg just says, oh,
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: isn't there while you're here? So it seems like we
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: are at an impasse, and that is the end of
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: the episode. I don't know what to think of this,
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: and Trafalgar Law, like, I don't know. He's just not
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: somebody who has scared me that much. I haven't. He's
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: always just so relaxed. And there are characters who are
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: relaxed and then they do some wild shit and you're
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: just like, oh, okay, I get it. But Trafalgar Law
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: has been like kind of ducking in and out of
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: the story a lot, and I just don't feel like
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: I've got really a handle on him yet, and him
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: working with this weird smoke monster. I have no idea
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: what his link is to any of this. So ooh okay,
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm seeing Seraphim was commenting in the chat,
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: but I think Boss is brown Beard. Seraphim said, okay,
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: noted likely. Yes, Punk Hazard is named after Vega Punk.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: The asylum was his lab until the indecent four years
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: or oh I think it was supposed to say incident
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: four years ago. It says indecent, but you know the
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: incident was indecent, and then keeping children locked up is
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: also indecent, so that's perfectly adequate to call it that,
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: I think. Yeah, all right, so we wrapped up. Uh,
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: thank you guys again for bearing with me when I
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: just miss stuff. I'm so sorry. I really try, I
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: really do. I get very embarrassed when I get things
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: so wrong, but it can't be helped. It's gonna happen
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: when you do as many episodes as I do. It's
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: gonna it's gonna happen, all right, everybody. Thank you again
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: so much for listening. Thank you to Sarah m for
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: joining me here. Thank you to Florian for commissioning this.
• 1:03:50

• 1:03:52

• 1:04:26
